New tuberculosis vaccines have made substantial progress in the development pipeline. Previous modelling suggests that adolescent/adult mass vaccination may cost-effectively contribute towards achievi…
Bike sharing is an important tool to reduce congestion and pollution in urban areas. Electrically Power Assisted Bicycles (EPAC’s) make cycling possible also for sedentary people. Standard EPAC’s are …
The situation of the COVID-19 pandemic reminds us that we permanently need high-value flexible solutions to urgent clinical needs including simplified diagnostic technologies suitable for use in the f…
The roll-to-roll (RtR) Manufacturing can produce a large amount of electrostatic charges. In terms of industrial safety, a large amount of energy can be released via electrostatic discharge (ESD) that…
This study analyzes the concentration and conglomerate spatial distribution of forest-based thermoelectric plants in Brazil, in 2018. Herein, we spatially identified thermoelectric plants in different…
Daily air monitoring of radionuclides in the Principality of Monaco (43°73'N, 7°43'E) after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident showed that only Iodine-131 ((131)I) and Caesium isotopes…
Healthy untrained males (age 25.4 +/- 1.7 years, n=12) gave their informed consent to take part in all experiments within the study. After 100 intermittent (every 20 s) drop jumps from the height of 0…
During the ornithological "Operation Baltic" on the Hel Peninsula (the Baltic Sea coast in Poland) the first case of transfer to Poland of ticks of the species Ixodes eldaricus Djaparidze, 1950, on Pr…
We designed the present study to examine whether diabetes mellitus affects the antiarrhythmic effect of flecainide, a sodium channel blocker, E-4031, a potassium channel blocker, and verapamil, a calc…
Tumor aggressiveness and response to therapy are influenced by the extravascular extracellular space fraction (EESF) of the malignant tissue. The EESF may, therefore, be an important prognostic parame…
To investigate the possible biological function of the lateral "strand dimer" observed in crystal structures of a D1 domain extracellular fragment from N-cadherin, we have undertaken site-directed mut…
We have used an RNA consisting of the potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) and 240 bp of double-stranded RNA derived from the GUS gene as a backbone for scanning force microscope (SFM) studies on RNA b…
In recent years, human-machine interactions encompass many avenues of life, ranging from personal communications to professional activities. This trend has allowed for person identification based on b…
Intra-axial pseudotumors in the central nervous system often mimic malignant brain tumors and cause difficulty in diagnosis and treatment. The present study investigates their radiologic and histologi…
Home composting can be an effective way to reduce the volume of municipal solid waste. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Effective Microorganism™ (EM) for the home scale co-composting…
William James posited that comparable brain regions were implicated in the anticipation and perception of a stimulus; however, dissociable networks (at least in part) may also underlie these processes…
The brain's reward system is crucial to understand obesity in modern society, as increased neural responsivity to reward can fuel the unhealthy food choices that are driving the growing obesity epidem…
By means of a graphite double extrapolation chamber, the self consistent dosimetry system already used for an electron energy until 15 MeV also allows an absolute determination of the cavity ion dose …
Sir Karl Popper is well known for explicating science in falsificationist terms, for which his degree of corroboration formalism, C(h,e,b), has become little more than a symbol. For example, de Queiro…
Children's vegetable consumption falls below current recommendations, highlighting the need to identify strategies that can successfully promote better acceptance of vegetables. Recently, experimental…
